What if Iran prefers to live peacefully?
What if Iran prefers to live peacefully? Our 20th article is an ode to all peace-loving people who have extended their hand to the Iranian Regime, most recently Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. Needless to say, Iran has grown accustomed to sneaking through the back door and hijacking Arab issues through its agents by spreading chaos and violence, stirring sectarian wars, and supporting armed militias against those nations' governments. Iran attacked Arab justice with the Palestinian issue in its use of false and disgraced slogans that aimed at playing with the hearts of Arabs and Muslims.
Not to mention, its terrorist militias that have invaded our Arab world in Lebanon, Yemen, and Iraq, and the occupation of the Ahvaz, Khorramshahr, and the Islands of United Arab Emirates. Hence, demonstrating Iran's ethnocentrism, which is even directed at its crumpling country and people. Iran's behavior illustrates a desire to transform its regional influence from a medium regional power to an influential player in the region. This behavior Consequently, raised legitimate concerns from the United States of America and other regional powers.
What if Iran co-existed? The ethnocentrism of the Iranian Regime, which is working hard to marginalize the Palestinian issue, made Iran no different from the racist state occupying Palestine. Instead, it is on a path of rivalry to dominate the lands and resources of a nation in a state of weakness. The so-called 'Arabic spring' uprisings have yielded the Palestinian people into further despair, which made the Palestinian issue into a bargaining chip used for the Persian ambitions against Arab countries and nations. Although its agents, like some leaders of Palestinian factions, such as Hamas, Jihad, and the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, see Iran as their advocate, they are mistaken as Iran is responsible for the killing and displacement of Muslim Sunnis in Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, and Yemen.
What if Iran co-existed? The dilemma of its regional behavior is becoming most violent without an international deterrent or any possible fallout from Biden's sleeping diplomacy. The Supreme Leader of Iran, Khamenei confirming "Tehran's commitment to supporting its allies in the Middle East," and that its regional presence is a necessity that must be and will continue, is a farce as Iran still refuses to abandon its missile program and has not abided to the nuclear agreement since 2018. The Iranian regime boasted that its program "forced Iran's enemies to think twice," showcasing another example of the contradictory positions of Iran's terrorist behavior. Every nation in our world has made Iran's behavior not only a concern but also their utmost priority. At the forefront of those nations and global powers are the United States as Iran's possession of nuclear weapons leads to a global imbalance and an ill-advised nuclear race in the region.
What if Iran co-existed? Iran's massive deficit crisis is ravaging its budget. The lack of transparency of its financial operations at the Central Bank of Iran resulted in its blacklisting by the FATF (Financial Action Task Force). This, consequently, encouraged the Central Bank of Iran and the Iranian Government to pursue more illegal methods of operating financial and commercial markets in order to cause further destruction through the armament of its agents against our nations. Iran seems to be unmindful of the many Palestinian revolutionary groups, who claimed to serve the Palestinian issue using terrorist groups and parties in several countries. These groups then vanished. Thus, exposing the reality of those regimes. When Teheran accomplishes its objectives, the same will happen.
